Frequently used volunteer keyword phrases

I figured I would share the keyword phrases most often searched by Internet visitors interested in volunteering:

• volunteer opportunities
• volunteering
• volunteer
• volunteer match
• volunteer program
• volunteer services
• volunteer service
• volunteer center
• volunteer opportunity
• community organization
• volunteer group
• community organization
• volunteer jobs
• voluntary work
• charity work
• service volunteering
• local charities
• volunteering opportunity
• youth program
• mentoring program
• child charities

Also make sure that you include your geographical keyword phrases. Add your address at the bottom of each page (in text format, not graphics, which aren’t read) and scatter geographic references throughout your content—for example, put your local city, county or state name in front of each phrase—in order to target your site to volunteers in your area and improve your rankings among that target group.
